Locating a Loc8tor
I recently found out about a clever device that could also be used for tracking your pet.
It's called the Loc8tor and it's a simple RF tracker that can be used to locate a variety of objects -- your wallet, your car keys, and of course the most precious object of all: Your cat!
The transmitter is small enough to be attached to your cat's collar. According to the product info, the device is good for 600 feet with a direct line of sight.
I've found some good deals for this cat Loc8ator product on eBay:

Each tag including batteries weighs less than 5g (0.2 ounces) so that is certainly light enough for a cat to carry.

You can also buy the Loc8tor Plus Pack at Shop.com.The Loc8tor has a Locate mode and an Alert mode.The Locate mode is used to find possessions, children, and of course -- pet cats. It has directional audio and visual from the handheld unit to lead to the exact location of the homing tag.
The Alert mode lets you set up a kind of invisible boundary that warns you -- either through vibration or an audio alert through the handheld unit -- that a homing tag has gone outside the set perimeter.
This is the Loc8tor Plus Pack that comes with:
- 1 x Loc8tor Handheld
- 3 x Mini Homing Tags
- 1 x Panic Homing Tag
- Batteries
- Supplied with Locate & Alert Mode
And if you want a simpler and more inexpensive model you can get the Loc8tor Lite.The advantage of this model is that the receiver is very small -- credit card sized.
The range is a little less that the regular Loc8ator at 400 feet, depending upon the environment. However, if kitty tends to stay relatively close by then this device can still be very effective for pinpointing your cat's exact location.
